World Cup – Go Iberia?

32 wines from across the globe – 1 champion. September Wines & Spirits Summer Tastings will pit one wine up against another for the duration of the World Cup (June 9 – July 9). You, the public determine the winner – whichever wine sells the most during the tasting moves on to the next round.
Who will emerge the champion? Favorites like Italy, France or the U.S. —- Or will an underdog like Mexico, India or Lebanon surprise the field.

If you go over to the BBC you can listen to an audio snippet of the event where Italy and Brazil are matched up. Turns out Brazil was not quite as big of a favorite when it came to wine. Oh well, I suppose few Brazilians will care when they walk home with another trophy this year!

Challenge to any of you out there. Have you been watching the games, drinking wine, or is this a beer only event for you. Either way let us know what your drinking and who you think will walk home with the trophy this year!

Till soon,
